ArcheAge. Has lots of guilds with 300+ members, several fansites (with Archeagesource being the biggest/best), and active sub-reddit, etc.. Bad thing is, it's now IP blocked on the Russian version, which is the most active for international players. You'll have to use a VPN to play now, I believe. If you made an account before the IP Block, however, you wont need a VPN. There's also a Chinese, Korean and Japanese version you can give a go. NA/EU should be out, at least in beta, within the next few months.

I've seen EVE Online and GW2 and I agree. Super active games with huge communities, though there aren't many active fansites. I've only seen tools, databases, guides, and resources. Not really external forums.

LOl ArcheAge....I actually discovered that game few days ago on Reddit....it's not bad and it's got a big active fansite on it.

Planet of Exile is ok....some activity in that game.

I've also checked out Final Fantasy but I wonder if you have to be a subscriber to post on the official forums? I have no idea if guilds exist in FF and what the big fansites are.

Any other games? Saw a lot of threads for new games coming as well as games that have big updates being released. Any games that have been existing for a long time and is really big? I've already seen Rift, Tera, WoW, Archeage, GW2, and Wildstar. Though Wildstar is relatively new, not really a long-existing game.

Warframe does have some guilds with over 1k members and have their own websites, active, etc.

Be careful of what you say, tomorrow or today, for the words you now speak, may become the poison your enemies later seek; truth.

1. Have 1 or more active fansites
2. Have active guilds
3. Has an overall active community

I know World of Warcraft is the biggest and most active MMO out there. Same with SWTOR. Crappy thing is you have to be a paid subscriber to post on their forums. World of Warcraft has some cool fansites and tons of guilds though. SWTOR has MMO-Champion and a few Curse sites.

What other games do you guys know of with really big guilds and open communities? Planet of Exile, Neverwinter, Wildstar, Elder Scrolls.....

WoW is not the biggest and most active game, it was 4 years ago, now its not even in the top 5
